Well, my husband put an end to my quandry! We went with the Barelona Red! For 2 reasons, 1) Silver was 45 minutes away and at a large volume dealer that probably would have tag-teamed us after we arrived 2)Red one had alarm system that would discount our insurance. Here is the lowdown on purchase: . I finally got the down to $23,600 OTD= $25,339.16. However, I got them to add leather at $1100 xtra making selling price $24,700 OTD= $26,510.00. When we got to the dealership. salesman had added $40 to price. I made him take it off. then we get to finance dept to sign papers they had added $140 to OTD for aftermarket add-ons. I told them this was a deal breaker. I am sure that both price increases were to make up for salesman giving me leather for $1100 because every dealer I talked to quoted $1250 for that addition. There was not much of a hassle he lowered the price of the vehicle to compensate for the $140 and OTD was again $26,510.00. I know they made a little money but I became weary, I was on the phone and email for the last 2 days and no one else would sell me the car for that price. Perhaps, if I had waited until next week ..... but couldn't wait. In the end I am very happy with the purchase. It has the following: CD,PR,RL,TO,CF,S6,P4,vin etching and tint and will have leather next week. I am going to ask them today if they will sell me mud flaps at dealer cost. Hope this helps anyone else looking in Dallas-Ft.Worth area. Please feel free to comment on my final deal. I am anxious to know what everyone thinks!!

Replying to: shued (Jul 26, 2008 9:57 pm) After spamming almost 20 dealers and negotiating with about 5 of them, I got this quote: Silver 2008 Rav4 4X4 V6 Limited EJ - JBL stereo system HD - heated seats LA - leather RL - day-time running lights SR - moonroof TO - tow prep package Sales price after $1000 rebate = $26,665 Price OTD = $29,291.83 Supposedly, they gave me a price that was $200+ BELOW invoice (and according to Edmunds, this seems true). This was after I told them that I would be financing the car through my own credit union + cash down. The only catch was that they told me I need to make the purchase before the end of this weekend (like most of the other dealers). Seems good to me, and I was able to get 2 other quotes within $100 of this.

I live in So. California and just got a Silver 2008 4x2 Rav4 Base Model (#4430E), with the 3rd row seat pkg. for $21,200 before $1000 rebate. Accessories include: FE, DR, AA, TH, CT, EF & we got the nice cargo net that comes with the Sport trim and a cover for the trunk space thrown in (dealer said the 2 were worth about $400). OTD was $22,900 after rebate. I think this was a good deal, but would love someone to confirm that it was.
